Mali - Salif Keita - Moussoolou

[channellmixer]

I know what he's saying and what he's speaking is the truth.

[ulutirmik]

Every word he utters is clear as a bell even though I have no idea what he is talking about :)

[schip70muzak]

mmh, that's a groit!!!

[riitef1]

muso on mandinga means woman, so this means women and life.

[anouskatkout]

why this big artist don't have a vevo channel ?

and i found just the stupid commercial :(

the real music is dead guys R.I.P lovely music <3

[Parteque]

@anouskatkout i'm glad he doesn't have a vevo channel, because if he had, vevo would find a translator, and censor all the mean words.

[bamofmali]

that song make me so proud of my Mom thank you oncle Salif....

[MallikaLucie]

i absolutely love this song. it makes me tingle every single time. What album is it from? I can't find it anywhere...

[somagikk]

Wonderful piece!!

[keitabanx]

This makes me humble.

[top1281]

star d afrique

[NuttiSoul]

We had the pleasure of seeing him play in Botswana on the 29th September, 2011...played all his best songs although he didnt play Moussoolou, my favorite...but it was great joy to see play Mandjou, N'Bi'fe, Tekere, Afrika among others. Here is a professional who gives his all into a performance, you couldnt question his showmanship! But in our country, gigs are not allowed beyond 2a.m so the show had to end before 00:00, which is always rather sad because that is when all the fun begins.

[SNAKOPAT91]

CLASSICCCCC!!!!!!!!! REAL TRIBUTE

[kwasi0217]

Femmes africaines mille fois chantees

Femmes africaines mille fois honorees

Salif vous rend hommage

Respect a vous d'age en ages.

[pluggedin2u]

i don't understand the african dialect Salif is speaking but this song communicates volumes of emotions. This tune is absolutely beautiful! A true masterpiece. A salute to mother Africa a true foundation for all cultures and muisc.

[pitersony]

@pluggedin2u THIS SONG IS MAGIC

POWER

[Saheli9]

@pluggedin2u

AFRICAN LANGUAGE AND NOT "DIALECT" PLZ

thank you

[pluggedin2u]

@Saheli9 Africa is a continent of many countries and many languages, so technically there is not really an African language. When I used the word dialect (perhaps incorrectly) I was referring to one of those languages that Salif sings in. I don't know, I don't speak any of the languages from those countries so i can't identify which one. perhaps you can enlighten me. Thank you.

[Saheli9]

@pluggedin2u

Why not refer to it as language instead of "dialect".

the language he sings in is malinké/bambara

[pluggedin2u]

@Saheli9

[pluggedin2u]

@Saheli9 Thanks for the information.

[TheChaNar]

@pluggedin2u That which you say about Mother Africa is one of the few truths we need to know.

[Wjanut]

@pluggedin2u He doesn't speak a dialect but a language, which is Bambara. And what he's singing is a tribute to african women.

[pluggedin2u]

@Wjanut Thanks for enlightening me. Truly a great composition.

[Allascocolobi]

This song makes me to remember my late mother who did everything for me from my birth till my high school graduation. Now i am working she is not around to enjoy from my job. I feel sad but God is Great.

[25caxito]

queria tanto perceber esta musica. e muito linda minha africa deus ajuda africa melhor povo do mundo

[1977beks]

merci Salif pour ta chanson, avoir pensé a nous les femmes et mère.Nous sommes des personnes trés importantes et indispensable pour les hommes et nous travaillons dur pour élevé nos enfants, travail, marient, et du foyer.

encore merci Salif

[sirblair1]

reconnaître la valeur de la Femme ,c'est reconnaître le prestige de la Mère comme étant le Moteur de la perpétuation de l'humanité. Et cela est exalté par la Voix Mélodieuse de Salif Kéita. Merci Le Sage de La Maturité, merci l'Artiste......

[Villesanti]

What is this song about?

[Jiji17091991]

@Villesanti it's about woman and especially mother's apology and strengh...

[Jiji17091991]

@Villesanti it's about woman and especially mother's behavior and apology...

[pyreneeamour]

Best thing I've heard in the past few months. Why do they play so much shit on the radio stations and ignore artists like Salif Keita ?

[SuperRoss83]

simply because, illuminati control the world, they value evil

[skythepower]

What a world without a mother? They carried us for 9 months or more, brought us forth to the world, clean you from age one day, having sleepless nights wasted days of their farming days, feed you all along, cloth you all along. What do we give in appreciation for their endless feelings? I wish this music was translated in a universal language,

[MartinettiUS]

I need lyrics :)

[murda172]

I LOVE CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHERE I CAN DOWNLOAD THIS

[kweencessX]

@murda172

Buy on iTunes or Amazon.

[lostsoldier13210]

[simp1eone]

African women have such NATURAL beauty

[98jejq]

What is this song about?

What does "Moussoolou" means?

[malila85]

@98jejq

It means "women",this song is a tribute to them.

[hadjasowz]

@98jejq it means women...its tlking abt the way women suffer nd y we have to b thankful to them cuz they gav us birth took care of us n everything u kno

[TORERO103]

magnifique

[papuskeita]

Translation of this song 2nd part When I think of women, I think of my mom We all come from a woman Be thankful to your mom Not only did she give you birth, She mothered you She took care of you She nurtured you She cleaned you She gave you gifts Remember that before being rich (or who you are), a woman gave you birth Women are the raison d’être of everything Women, women, women

[MrTenDollarMan]

@papuskeita Truly and big tnx for this.

[papuskeita]

TRanslation of this song 1st part Thanks to all the great people Thanks to the citizens Thanks to all the women Women are suffering Women are in pain Women are tired Before arrogantly claim to be rich, say thanks to those who made you rich Know that before being rich, a woman gave you birth Mothers, Mothers, Mothers. Women are doing a lot of shores After the farm, cooking is underway After shower, dinner is getting ready They look for woods for cooking materials

[MsAbbasco]

Salif est simplement le meilleur !!!!

[kenyagirl2009]

Salif brings me to tears at times with emotionally charged lyrics. Don't even understand what he's saying but it doesn't matter.

[mangomamaful]

Both my children were born to Senegalese Musicians.... we need to talk

[TheBibichoco]

[akturay]

Salif Keita is the best, even though I'm Sierra Leonean I have always admired his music. Salif tu es le meilleur.

[TheNubyangirl]

je suis senegalaise mais j'aime aussi la culture bambara..

[paapakobe]

The WOMEN's voices almost bring me tears - so powerful and rich. The tradition in this music makes it powerful - African scientific spiritual design heheheeh but no joke! It's about vibes/feelings that we add meaning or describe with words

[HelderMwangole]

You said & I totally agree.

[andrebko]

maman je t'aime et je t'aime irremplacable je suis celui à qui t'as tout donné merçi

[snaebjorn53]

Beautiful! The Golden Voice of Africa, surely one of the greats. Thanks for a lovely video, I've watched it several times, always a 5* treat.

[this331]

GRANDE SALIF. THANKS FOR YOUR MUSIC.

[Soundpitching]

those guitar chords at the start resonate straight through my heart. melancholic, heartrending, beautiful music.

[diakoof]

Moussolou ça veut dire "les femmes" en bambara pour les Maliens, en dioula pour les burkinabés et même en sosso pour les Guinéens comme quoi on est tous pareil. Il n'ya pas de frontière, don't care about borders.

[shawty4life22]

J'adore ! qui peut traduire les paroles , please ?

[halimatou1]

je dedie cette musike a ma chere mere ke j'aime bcp et je respecte tant. Je t'adore maman. Car tu es une fille brave et soumise.
